reference_parser 0.5.0

Parse strings to find the reference to bible verses

reference_parser

A dart package that parses strings for bible references

Installation

pub get reference_parser

Usage

See example/main.dart for a look at the types of strings that can be parsed

import 'package:reference_parser/reference_parser.dart';

var ref = parseString('Gen 1:1');

After importing and creating a reference object, you can view the parsed information through the fields

var ref = parseString('Gen 1:1-5');

ref.book; //Genesis
ref.bookNumber; //1
ref.chapter; //1
ref.startVerse; //1
ref.endVerse; //5
ref.reference; //Genesis 1:1-5
ref.isValid; //true

Note that you can create non-existent references, so always check the isValid field to ensure a reference is correct

You can also directly create reference objects by calling createReference(String book, [int chapter, int startVerse, int endVerse])

var ref = createReference('1Co', 2);
print(ref.reference); //1 Corinthians 2
